Breaking the ice

Hey guys, I had gotten in touch with someone from this club about a year or so ago about joining and ended up simply not having the time. However now seems like a good time for me to finally get together with everyone and find out what's going on with this club.

I have read that you need to attend two trail rides and a meeting, maybe two, before voting takes place. Sounds good to me, however I have a question about all this, do I need to wait to come to a meeting before I meet up with you guys for a ride, or can I simply crash...er crawl the gate and show up at a ride? If I can come to a ride first, who do I need to speak with to get details on time, place, etc etc.

Looking forward to meeting you guys (I'm in Scottsboro) because I need some good people to wheel with and not the average trail idiots that I've been around. Thanks for answering my question guys.

Welcome, from another Jackson County guy! I'm in Hytop, north of Skyline. There are some great local trails and some excellent people to ride with in the club.  Hope to see you at a meeting or ride soon!

Awesome, great to know I've got people close by. I plan on making next months meeting. I didn't come to this months meeting because I'm still getting my Jeep "club ready". I just got my rear tow hooks mounted today and I still lack a CB, Fire Extinguisher, and First Aid Kit. I figured there was no point in asking or showing up till I'm ready.

I'll take a look at the calender on the front page in the next day or so and see when the first ride I can make is coming up. I really wanted to do the Stoney Lonesome club work day on the 20th. I take it this is a maintenance day for the OHV? I think Grey Rock is above my skill level right now, still trying to get to grips with the capabilities I can handle, but I think I'm ready.

I'm really interested in the Hale Mtn. ride easter weekend. These may be my first two rides if I can tag along, and maybe my first meeting right before the last ride.
